These Things Matter

The premise of These Things Matter is simple: Denver-centric celebs join hosts Taylor Gonda and Kevin O'Brien to talk about something or someone in popular culture that changed their life. Gonda and O'Brien steer conversations in unexpected directions, as well-known folks such as OpenAir DJ Alisha Sweeney and comedian Adam Cayton-Holland join in with personal anecdotes about topics like Weezer, Jack Kerouac and Planet of the Apes. The broad-spectrum banter attracts music nerds, cinephiles, literary geeks and TV junkies alike and makes for unique, thought-provoking episodes. These Things Matter is a listenable podcast for many reasons, but it's Gonda and O'Brien's rapport that provides the show's seamless flow. Find it at thesethingsmatterpodcast.com.
